Melba is a French restaurant in the Saint-Sauveur neighbourhood of Quebec City, Canada.
The business opened in late 2022, started by Guillaume St-Pierre. St. Pierre is known for being the chef-owner of popular Quebec City Italian restaurant Battuto. Charles Provencher Proulx and Alexandra Roy serve as the restaurant's co-head chefs.[1]
Melba was opened and operates in the Saint-Sauveur neighbourhood, outside of the popular parts of the city more known for high-end restaurants. St. Pierre cited wanting to open the restaurant in the neighbourhood due to it being perceived as 'emerging'.[1]
Melba, similar to other fine dining restaurants in the city, is known for relying on the nearby boreal forests to source ingredients for its dishes, including fresh whelks and fiddleheads.[2] Unlike many popular restaurants in North America, Melba is closed on the weekends, only being open Monday through Friday.[3]
